Book Description
With a new plug-in that re-creates the sounds of 11 of the world's best-known guitar amps, distributed audio processing (which lets you tap into a virtually unlimited number of Macs), new software instruments (including a killer drum machine), and a slew of workflow enhancements, it's no wonder you're chomping at the bit to start using Logic Pro 7 and its streamlined sibling Logic Express 7. This Apple-certified guide ensures that you do-effectively, efficiently, and in as little time as possible! Veteran audio producer Martin Sitter uses step-by-step, project-based instruction and straightforward, jargon-free prose to detail the countless creative options Logic affords for audio production. After showing you how to set up Logic and begin recording audio with it, Martin details editing sequences, mixing techniques, and using Logic's software synthesizers, sampler and digital signal processors to put the perfect aural polish on their audio creations. The accompanying CD includes all the lesson files and media you'll need to complete the book's lessons.

Best. Manual. Ever........2007-09-10
So many tutorials and manuals I read for software leave me confused so I just use them as a backup when there is something in particular that I'm trying to learn. Some may be like me where having a hands-on lesson sinks into the brain much faster.
This book is like taking a class. The lessons are installed on your computer, follow the book at your own speed and you're learning in just minutes. I've heard nothing but good things about this book, so I decided to get it. So glad I did.
Better Than The Rest.......2007-08-03
Logic and Logic Express at any given moment can seem very illogical to the user. This book, although written with the idea of (logically) exploring its features and use in a step-by-step manner using prepared lessons with pre-packaged audio and midi files, can also be used to learn the program by reference. That is to say, for example, that if you'd like to learn how to enter Midi, or edit it, you can find the chapters and functions regarding midi, use the example chapters/sections with your own files and learn how to use the program.
If you are already a "seasoned" DAW owner/user, other than to figure out where/how the very basic things you are doing in another program are located/implemented in Logic (transport controls, audio editing windows, import/export of files), you will be better off going straight to the second book in this series, Apple Pro Training Series: Advanced Logic Pro 7 (Apple Pro Training) by David Dvorin.
I use another DAW in addition to Logic/Logic Express. Logic Express' documentation severly lacks compared to that in Pro, and I would recommend this series of books for Express users in particular, but they are also valuable for those using Pro. One note, however: It is not generally clear in either of these books whether a given function (for example Groups functionality or the Marquis Tool or Aux functionality) is implemented and available in the Express version of the program and thus no workarounds are given for any 'missing' function, although workarounds generally exist.
Another nice feature of the books is their coverage of the 'plug-ins' that come with Logic and Express, most all of which are quality and useful to Logic and production in general. Especially for those who have not used a DAW before, and can find the use of software instruments, midi implementations and functional plug-ins such as reverb and compression a bit of a mystery. The chapters here will be of value.
There are other books written for learning and using Logic. But for me, this series was the best. I was able to find the information necessary to get me using the program quickly and efficiently (which is not to be taken lightly when it comes to using Logic, which is reknown for a steep learning curve) by example and reference more easily than with other books. Good indexes and clear examples are positives, not knowing whether something is implemented in Express is a negative, and some points just don't seem to be covered so its back to Apple's support forums to figure it out. But all things considered, best in breed in my opinion.
Your mileage may vary...

A manual you can use........2007-05-17
I was able to start using logic within minutes of flipping through this book. It is well written and laid out in a user friendly manner. I couldn't get anywhere with the manual, and I am use to reading technical babble. Get this book if you want to start using logic quickly, efficiently, and to its full potential.
Great tutorial - but written for those with experience .......2007-05-10
First let me say that this book (and it's partner Advanced Logic) are extremely useful and turn the "get to know the software" headaches into real pleasures. Having said that, this is obviously written by someone who is so familiar with the software that they take some things for granted that aren't obvious to the first-time user.
All in all though it is well worth the investment and comes with its own set of "songs" that walk one through the various features of the software in a well organized way.
very informative book.......2007-05-07
The manual is fabulous. Logic Express 7 is quite an undertaking to learn and this book is helping out a lot.
Book Description
This is the ultimate recipe book for visual effects artists working in Apple Shake, Adobe After Effects, and Apple Motion. An impressive lineup of Hollywood and independent effects pros have pulled together this compendium of the coolest and most useful effects from A to Z ("Adding Clouds" to "Z-Depth Effects"). The book includes everything from practical everyday commercial techniques to breakdowns of well-known shots from blockbuster films.

Provides the building blocks to VFX with Shake........2007-06-27
Four stars. A fifth star would have been earned for a better indexing or cross-reference. Otherwise a top notch, very informative book.
I have experience with film making and with Editing on Final Cut Pro. I was new to VFX, but I'm not anymore after reading this book!
Having seen Shake in action, I wanted to learn more. This books focus on Shake and the fact that a trial version ships with the book is the reason I bought it.
This book is a reference book. It explains, in detail, terms used in the VFX industry (clean plate, matchmoving, etc.) that any filmmaker or budding VFX artist will need to know if even just to communicate clearly with VFX professionals. The entries in the book are punctuated with walk-through tutorials that show you how to accomplish (in Shake) the specific effect. This is a good thing.
I had a project on my suite that needed some pretty hefty FX work. This book armed me with the right concepts and understanding so that I could plan the steps I'd need to take to accomplish the FX. In my case it was turning the request to "Make that person a ghost" into build a clean background plate, rotoscope the actor, invent a ghosty look, and then put it all back together. Until I had read the book and understood the individual steps involved, I didn't know where to begin.
Overall, this is a very informative reference book written in a witty and accessible style. It is VERY Shake oriented, which is, again, WHY I bought it. This is the kind of book an FX pro (or newbie) will reference many times as they work on future projects.
Fine book.......2007-06-07
I was already aware of most of the topics covered in this book, but it helped understand them better and be able to explain accurately to anyone asking. Its also well updated to current industry standards. its in no way complete as an Encyclopedia, needs future voulmes to do that.
In short-A text book for every student of visual effects.
Cons: The DVD files can be accessed only in a MAC (not for PC).
A most complete textbook for VSFX..........2007-03-08
My humble congratulations to the authors who have teamed up with Apple to bring us (my Visual Effects Dept. students and I) a most complete textbook. In my opinion, this book rates in the current top five of all serious resources in the teaching & learning of Visual Effects at the College and Graduate levels. In addition to that, for those of us teaching compositing and matte painting, I would rate this book as the current number one textbook on these topics. A must-read, for a serious student of the Art and Craft of Visual Effects.
Deepest respects,
Prof. Tan TASCIOGLU,
Professor of Visual Effects, Savannah College of Art & Design
SCAD-Atlanta campus.

great reference material.......2007-02-24
great book for beginner to intermediate level vfx artists. the book works exactly as the title says, as an encyclopedia or a reference on how to approach specific problems/challenges that a vfx artist usually faces in production.
Good Contribution.......2007-01-29
For those reviewers who are complaining this book does not cover Adobe After Effects or Final Cut Pro should consider one major fact: the title. It's an Apple book dedicated to Apple software. After Effects (strangely enough) is NOT an Apple product. Furthermore, Shake is Apple's premier visual effects software, and promoting it is in their interests. People are glued to either Final Cut Pro or After Effects (I find both endearing and quite wonderful), and Shake is left out in the dust, even though it offers many aspects other software cannot.
In any case, the book doesn't cover EVERYTHING but it does enough. If you want a step-by-step guide to all the possible effects, I suggest you write your own book after years of experience. Or, you can spend $500 for a collection of books which will undoubtably cover many of the same topics.
This book is a good find. Won't disappoint you if your expectations aren't unreasonable.

Pretty Good.......2007-10-03
I am a huge Scott Kelby fan; however, this showed pretty much the same techiques as the first CS book, which I already have. So, if you have the first book ... don't buy the second!
Kudos.......2007-09-27
Kudos! The product was in great shape and delivered in a timely manner, which was awesome since I recieved it the day before I had class! Thx!
An excelent book for both beginers and more advanced photographers .......2007-09-22
.The Photoshop CS2 Book for Digital Photographers (Voices That Matter)
I found the book to be very user friendly, clearly written and put in a methodical order. The chapters are easy and fun to follow.
Although vey funny in the begining, I too found Scott Kelby's humour to be a bit much at times and also a little repetitious, but I guess his aim is to prevent the reader from getting bored with the technical stuff. So I was more than willing to put up with it.
The book is aimed at those with at least a basic knowledge of photography, I have been a profesional film photographer and once having made the move to digital I found the book to be fantastic.
It answered my every need.
A must on the shelf of all photoshop users, unless of course you know your stuff as well as Scott does.
Another winner.......2007-09-19
Scott does Photoshop training right - quick, easy tutorials that elevate your abilities to negotiate the steep learning curve of this software. His sense of humor keeps it fun.
Do Not Recommend.......2007-09-15
This is one of the most user-unnfriendly books I have ever used. The writer sometimes mixes up instructions on Mac versus on PC and that throws you off at every point. Also he is constantly assuming certain windows are already open for you or certain functions have already been activated. So he'll go "Press V" and "Press D" but nothing happens although apparently it was suppossed to make your background white (what does that even means!). So I am not recommending this book to anyone at all.
Book Description
You can set your watch to it: As soon as Apple comes out with another version of Mac OS X, David Pogue hits the streets with another meticulous Missing Manual to cover it with a wealth of detail. The new Mac OS X 10.4, better known as Tiger, is faster than its predecessors, but nothing's too fast for Pogue and Mac OS X: The Missing Manual. There are many reasons why this is the most popular computer book of all time.
With its hallmark objectivity, the Tiger Edition thoroughly explores the latest features to grace the Mac OS. Which ones work well and which do not? What should you look for? This book tackles Spotlight, an enhanced search feature that helps you find anything on your computer; iChat AV for videoconferencing; Automator for automating repetitive, manual or batch tasks; and the hundreds of smaller tweaks and changes, good and bad, that Apple's marketing never bothers to mention.
Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition is the authoritative book that's ideal for every user, including people coming to the Mac for the first time. Our guide offers an ideal introduction that demystifies the Dock, the unfamiliar Mac OS X folder structure, and the entirely new Mail application. There are also mini-manuals on iLife applications such as iMovie, iDVD, and iPhoto, those much-heralded digital media programs, and a tutorial for Safari, Mac's own web browser.
And plenty more: learn to configure Mac OS X using the System Preferences application, keep your Mac secure with FileVault, and learn about Tiger's enhanced Firewall capabilities. If you're so inclined, this Missing Manual also offers an easy introduction to the Terminal application for issuing basic Unix commands.
There's something new on practically every page, and David Pogue brings his celebrated wit and expertise to every one of them. Mac's brought a new cat to town and we have a great new way to tame it.
Customer Reviews:
Great!.......2007-09-11
Although I haven't read through the whole book yet. What I did read I really liked. It is simple to understand with humor on top. Makes a great read apart from all the tips. Highly recommendable.
Mac OS Tiger: The Missing Manual.......2007-09-10
This Manul along with Mac for Dummies and "Switchig to the Mac" is all I have available to learn how to use a MAC. My MacBook Pro Laptop came with not one ioata of information as to how to use it, even to turn it on and off. It is much different from the Microsoft Operating System computers that I have used in the past. Without these books it would have been much more difficult as to how things work on a Mac, and to be able to use them. The Manual for the Leapord Operating system is now out, which is what my machine has in it and I currently have a copy of the Leapord Manual on order. With the verious items I now have, and the new Leapord Operating System on hand, I feel it is just a matter of time until I can easily operate my new Mac.
I wish it was on CD or DVD.......2007-09-09
I am a disabled person in many ways. I have cerebral problems that leave me with a very short attention span, and short term memory loss. I had a hard time getting started with the manual. Even when using a book mark, I would forget what I read up until I marked my place. If the manual was on CD or DVD, I could browse through it more easily. My biggest problem is that after years of using machines with Microsoft OS, I bought an iMac G4\G3 Desktop (the one with the half melon shaped base and the wide flat screen on a stalk) and I can't figure out how to do anything except turn it on and off, and navigate slightly. The manual shows nor tells no way to open the CD tray. I tried to use the added Air Port Extreme wireless device to connect to my existing wireless enabled router. I know I entered the proper settings, but it would not connect. The manual covers that but not so far as to tell you what to do if you can't make a connection. I can't even find instructions on how to check what hardware is present. Like Windows Hardware Devices.
Chatty Dialog Makes Difficult Reading.......2007-08-19
I bought the book as the reviews were pretty good and I wanted a quick way to learn features in OS X that were not obvious for a computer-savvy chap like myself.
I recommend that you go to the nearest bookstore and try reading a few pages or a chapter before deciding to purchase this book instead of an alternative.
The author takes 822 pages to communicate what could likely be presented in less than 300 pages. The dialog is overly "chatty" and the author worked to stretch the text to 822 pages.
Here are a few excerpts.
"Apple has a name for the animation you see when you minimize, open, or close a window: the genie effect, because it so closely resembles the way Barbara Eden, Robin Williams, and other TV and move genies entered and exited their magic lamps and bottles."
"Here and there--in System Preferences, TextEdit, Microsoft Office, and many other programs--Mac OS X offers you the opportunity to choose a color for some element: for your desktop, background, a window, and so on."
"Address Book is Mac OS X's little-black-book-program--an electronic Rolodex where you can stash the names, job titles, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and Internet chat screen names of all the people in your life..."
That's 822 pages of long run-on sentences with happy, cute, and chatty dialog to describe everything. That's every single screen, feature, option, mouse click, everything in Mac OS X. The examples cited above were randomly picked by opening three arbitrary pages.
If your preference is for concise communication of howto's and features this is not the book for you.
Great book.......2007-08-09
I'm a long time windows user, first time Apple. This book is a must.

great lessons... sytematic, clear........2007-05-09
Excellent lessons... just perfect... sssshhh.. I'll let you in on a little secret... you listening? Give Apple 99 bucks and get 50 one hour lessons! 2 bucks an hour with a pro at the Apple store!
Really good start for learning Final Cut Pro 5........2007-04-08
Anyone aspiring to be an director needs to be a good editor first. You need to understand how the film will be put together so that you can plan your shots, actors, special effects, music etc. Editing is the final part, where everything comes together. The best editing work is only as good as the sum of the components - story, acting, photography, sound effects, music, etc. When all these things come together with great editing, there is the potential for a great property.
Final Cut Pro (FCP) is an industry player in film editing. The price of Final Cut Studio (Final Cut Pro is part of this package) is cheap for professionals and within reach of the serious hobbyist. By serious I mean you don't just by the starter kit and then put it on the shelf. Make no mistake FCP is very functional, and it is entirely probable that you will be fully intimidated by the plethora of options available to you. This is where the "Apple Pro Training Series: Final cut Pro 5" comes in. Don't expect to be the next Tony Scott or Steven Spielberg yet. That can't be done in any book. It will however, give you enough grounding to start experimenting with FCP with confidence.
Do all the chapter exercises in order and don't skip any. I don't recall any errors, which is rare. I can't recommend this book enough.
Apple Pro Training Series: Final Cut Pro 5.......2007-03-29
Excellent user-friendly resource! Well written with tutorials on disk. Highly recommended for the novice to advanced editor!
Gotta have it if your a mac person!.......2007-03-26
This would be a good brush up for those who planing to take test. This book is a good book gives you step by step on how to edit your projects! I am glad i bought this book
Pretty Good.......2007-03-15
I think this book did a good job on breaking down the program. Other books have been more complicated, this one was easier and gave step by step instruction. Good Buy and it comes with a CD.

Book Description
Used by millions worldwide, FileMaker Pro is an award-winning database program for managing people, projects, images, assets, and other information. It's easy to use and totally customizable--so long as you know what you're doing. But FileMaker Pro doesn't come with a printed manual, so FileMaker Pro: The Missing Manual is the authoritative, jargon-free book that should have been in the box.
FileMaker Pro: The Missing Manual approaches FileMaker the way FileMaker approaches you: it's user-friendly and seemingly straightforward enough, but it offers plenty of substance worthy of deeper exploration. Packed with practical information as well as countless expert tips and invaluable guidance, it's an in-depth guide to designing and building useful databases with the powerful and pliable FileMaker Pro.
Covering FileMaker for both Windows and Macintosh, FileMaker Pro: The Missing Manual is ideal for small business users, home users, school teachers, developers--anyone who wants to organize information efficiently and effectively. Whether you want to run a business, publish a shopping cart on the Web, plan a wedding, manage a student information system at your school, or program databases for clients, this book delivers.
Author Geoff Coffey has many years of experience using FileMaker Pro (he was, in fact, an early beta tester for the product). Author Susan Prosser is a FileMaker Certified Developer who trains other developers. Together, Coffey and Prosser show you how to:
- Get FileMaker up and running quickly and smoothly
- Import and organize information with ease
- Design relational databases that are simple to use, yet powerful
- Take advantage of FileMaker Pro calculation capabilities
- Automate processes with scripting
- Customize FileMaker Pro to your needs and preferences
- Share information with other people (coworkers, clients, and customers) and other programs
- Understand and select the best security options
What could easily come across as dry and intimidating--things like relational theory, calculations, and scripting--are presented in a way that is interesting and intuitive to mainstream users. In no time, you'll be working more productively and efficiently using FileMaker Pro.

overrated-info not well presented.......2007-10-06
I was disappointed by this book, especially considering the high reviews that it has received. I would consider myself an advanced computer user and intermediate in working with programs like FileMaker. (Though database programs I have used before have had less features). This book uses an example of building a database throughout the book that involves customers and invoices, etc. The problem is that in later chapters the ongoing example database begins to interfere with the presentation of the material. If you have the time to work through the example database in detail (for a few hundred pages+) you might have a decent understanding of Filemaker-at least within the context of the example. Or if you have that kind of time, you might just want to take a class. I started with the beginning of the book when I began to build my database (which does not involve customers and invoices). After doing the initial planning/building work, I tried to skip to other parts of the book that were relevent to what I needed to do. Unfortunately, most of the descriptions are based on the original example--this made it difficult to apply the information to my own project. If the functions had been just described clearly at the beginning of each section, without relying on the example it would have been much better. There are a few mistakes as well-small but they cost me a bit of time. E.g., the book states that the "missing fields" problem can be fixed by changing a setting in preferences. This is not necessarily right--in my case it turned out to be a layout issue. I've had better results with trial and error than on relying on most of the book. Also, the language is not as clear as it could be, and precision is important in a book like this, especially for those of us who are not advanced users. Most importantly, I would have preferred a book with more straightforward descriptions and instructions.
Missing Manual Indeed.......2007-09-13
I have been trying to use all the resources - bundled manuals, vtc, lynda.com since 2005 to learn filemaker/a database from scratch. I chose filemaker for 2 reasons - ease of use and support for OS X technologies like Applescript. I found it a bit challenging to understand concepts in Database design but with this one book things were more clear than ever before. I have finished this book and am planning to buy the latest version for filemaker 9.
If you are a newbie in database programming and need to get a well explained book to help you through building your own database. Get this book. It is well worth it.
BTW thanks for this book, I have a fully functional database to manage information related to my studies and research.
Indeed the missing manual.......2007-06-11
Why software cannot come with good manuals anymore is a mystery. This is exactly as advertised, the missing manual. Some other books will show you how to build bigger, more sophisticated solutions, but this one covers every aspect of how Filemaker works, which is what a manual should do.
Oh, and by the way, Filemaker is an amazing, underappreciated tool which helps manage a mailing list or build an entire database system. You cannot go wrong with it.
Too many mistakes to be valuable.......2007-05-16
I hesitate to write negative reviews because I always suspect that the errors I find are my own misunderstandings. In this case I felt COMPELLED to write one. I bought this book wanting it to be great and having high expectations based on the reviews I read. I doubt many of the reviewers OR the EDITORS read this book very closely. There are so many mistakes (small and large) and examples which flat out DON'T WORK, that the book has almost driven me mad. I've wasted HOURS trying to get things to work the way the authors described. The errata posted on the oreilly.com site lists maybe 1/4 of the errors. There is ONE posted review on Amazon.com which took notice of this, but all of the others seem to miss it completely. Kudos to Raymond Smith!
Two perfect examples (in case you want to save yourself a few hours of struggle):
1. The Invoice Finder tutorial on page 372 simply doesn't work using the "minimum amount" field as they describe. It will work using the date range criterion, but when you add the minimum amount match, it fails. I built a file following along with the text and thought it was MY file that was broken. Then I tried the files supplied with the Missing Manual "CD". The authors' files don't work either. They SEEM to work with the data already in them, but if you add an invoice, it doesn't work. And if you simply open the "options..." definition of the Total Due field on the "Invoices" table, then OK the dialog box, all the existing data fails as well. It must be some kind of indexing problem, but the fact that it slipped by the editors is almost impossible to believe.
2. The Repeating Fields for Multiple Results on page 417 is totally wrong. The formula they supply will not work at all, and in fact, unless the "Price" field is a repeating field as well (which they don't mention at all), you can't do any calculations using the "Get(CalculationRepetitionNumber)" that will work the way they describe. Not to mention the fact that in the second mention of the calculation they call it "Get(CalculatedRepetitionNumber)" which is wrong and won't even take. The text suggests that you "test this calculation with a few numbers", but I doubt that any editor tried it. AND THIS IS LISTED IN A POWER USERS' CLINIC.
I don't know if this is an author problem or an editor problem, but either way, it is a REAL problem for readers.
What a disappointment and a waste of many hours... Don't listen to the majority of reviews on this book. They have clearly come from people who read it but were not actually trying to learn from the DOING the examples in the text. The book is written in a friendly easy style, but there are too many errors to make it valuable. And it's been out for TOO long for these things not to be listed in an available errata or supplement.
Greatly informative, but needs a better editor........2007-04-27
I'm not a database expert, yet I'm not a beginner. This review is from a person with a basic understanding of database programs.
I'm about halfway through this book and it has been a great guide to learning about FileMaker. However, it is soooo frustrating that there are many errors in the examples used throughout the book. With all the dry, technical speech (the author does try to lighten it up some) my ADD may kick in a little causing me to read it wrong while thinking about something else, but there are many times when the book tells me to do something with the example file you download with the "missing cd" and it just doesn't working right. For me it doesn't matter if they have updates on misprints in the book available online. I'm the kind of person who would prefer it be printed correctly the first time and not have to check everything against an online list of typos. That said, and taking the examples with a grain of salt and just getting the concepts behind them, I really do think this book is a good resource for becoming familiar FileMaker pretty fast. I've not read any other books but this one has to be one of the most comprehensive ones.
Book Description
It's little wonder that longtime Windows users are migrating in droves to the new Mac. They're fed up with the virus-prone Windows way of life, and they're lured by Apple's well-deserved reputation for producing great all-around computers that are reliable, user-friendly, well designed, and now--with the $500 Mac mini--extremely affordable, too.
Whether you're drawn to the Mac's stability, its stunning digital media suite, or the fact that a whole computer can look and feel as slick as your iPod, you can quickly and easily become a Mac convert. But consider yourself warned: a Mac isn't just a Windows machine in a prettier box; it's a whole different animal and a whole new computing experience.
If you're contemplating--or have already made--the switch from a Windows PC to a Mac, you need Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition. This incomparable guide delivers what Apple doesn't: everything you need to know to successfully and painlessly move to a Mac.
The latest reprint of this book has been updated to reflect the new generation of Mac models that run on Intel chips. There's even a new appendix that guides you through the installation of Windows XP on your Macintosh (using adapter software like Boot Camp or Parallels), so that you have the best of all worlds: a single, beautiful machine that can run 100 percent of the world's desktop software.

Perfect companion.......2007-09-26
Until a few months ago, I would never have bought anything but a PC. For some reason, I decided to buy an iMac. I love it now. But this book made it possible. At first, I was confused and knew I had made a monumental mistake by not buying yet another trusty PC. Oh, yes, I looked back wistfully and yearned for the weekly (if not more frequent) updates to keep those pesky viruses, worms, maggots, whatever out of my computer. But then I found this book, and combined it with one other (MAC OS X, Tiger Edition) and discovered another dimension of computing. I love my iMac. I love these books. And if you are new to the Mac, they are invaluable!!! I even bought a set for my son in college, who also decided to surrender his idolatry of the PC and switch to a Mac Book. He feels the same! Easy to read. Easy to find what you need. Easy to follow directions!!! They're great!
Very Useful for New Intel Mac Switchers.......2007-09-21
This book will save you time in the transition from PC to Mac, now increasingly common as buyers are attracted to the new Intel Macs. You can probably figure out most of the operating system differences on your own, but the hints in this book justify the price.
The switch, by the way, is also worth it.

Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition
Great book!
It tells you all the things us poor PC users would take ages to learn.
The language is easy, fun and very, very clear, although sometimes it tends to err on the verbose side of life.
Good buy for the money
Not exactly What I Expected.......2007-09-09
I haven't read the entire manual. Due to some cerebral related problems, I have a very short attention span, and short term memory loss. So I was really hoping for some sort of clear cut index comparing Microsoft OS to Tiger OS. There was an index, but it wasn't wired that way. Other then that, It seems to be a comprehensive publication. Since the problem really sits with me, I guess I should have given it a better score.
Tedious........2007-08-23
I have seen so much hype about the Pogue "Missing Manual" books that I had to try this one having just switched to the mac after being a long time PC user. This book helped me in some ways but was tediously written. I don't like the author's writing style and some of the contents were irrelevant to me. I would try another book if one were available.. Writing a 500 page book on how to use a computer for a person already able to operate a PC seems like overkill to me. I read about half of it while awaiting being called for jury duty but by the second half had to skim it. It is more like a boring textbook than a primer and transition book. I wouldn't recommend it to the average reader making " the switch".

Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac OS 10 Visual QuickStart Guide.......2005-08-24
This books makes learning the workings of Microsoft Office 2004 super easy. The photos and instructions take the reader step-by-step through the inner workings of the program. A must for the beginner and a resource for the experienced user. Learn Word, Excel and PowerPoint, as well as Entourage and more by using this guide any way you wish.
Gets You Started Quickly.......2004-11-27
Aimed at the beginning and intermediate user of Microsoft Office for Macintosh, this book is part of the Visual Quickstart Guide. The philosophy of the series is to use a lot of photographs so that you can see what the screen should look like as you do various tasks during the learning process.
The organization of the book, after an introduction that you really should read or at least glance over, is modular just like the software. There's a part on Word, on Excel, on PowerPoint, and on Entourage. Each part is self standing and can be used independently of the other parts. You can read the part on the software you need without having to go do everything at once. Although to be sure you will sooner or later want to use the various applications together, and for this there is Part VI: Combining the Applications.
As a visually oriented book, there are hundreds of pictures/drawings to illustrate just about every point. It's a very fast way to get started.
Excellent quick guide to Microsoft Office.......2004-11-15
This 453-page book is written for beginning and intermediate users of Microsoft Office 2004. It blends short, well-written sections on the various parts of Office 2004 with screen shots and other graphics that show you visually how to do things. This is a winning combination and makes learning about Office 2004 easy and fun. I also was pleased to find short "tips" following the various discussions that further enhanced your ability to use the feature being discussed.
Starting the book is a good summary of what's new with the four components of Office 2004, namely Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Entourage. This is followed by separate "Parts" for each of these four applications plus an introductory section and a special ending section. The latter contains instruction on combining some of the aspects of the four applications. Within each of the major "Parts" are Chapters of major features each broken down further into short sections focusing on the various useful ways to use various features of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Entourage.
For example, Part II is on Microsoft Word. It is broken down into 6 chapters focusing on working with word, document formatting, text formatting, adding graphics, creating tables, and other word features. Then within each of those are several subsections providing specific help on various aspects of each chapter topic. For instance, within "document formatting" you'll find specific focus on paper size and orientation, margins, headers and footers, page numbers, inserting page breaks, creating multiple sections, and multiple columns. And all are user-friendly and quite helpful!
This book is part of the "Visual Quickstart Guide" series of Peachpit Press, and the again lives up to the other fine visual guides from this company. I was also impressed by the knowledge shared in this book by the skilled author whose past works included more than 50 other books and hundreds of computer-related reviews and articles for various well-known computer magazines. He knows his subject and has the skills to guide the reader to a most satisfying understanding of Office 2004.
All and all, I would highly recommend this helpful book and I'm sure I will be referring to it many times whenever I have a question about Office 2004 - and I have confidence that I'll find the answer!

An in-depth and elegant look at the construction of Mac OS X.......2007-01-05
This book is an ambitious attempt to cover the modern operating system of Mac OS X in substantial breadth and depth in one volume. This is what has been missing from previous books on programming and Apple's products - detailed serious knowledge of what is under the hood that has long been available for other operating systems such as Solaris. The most important contribution to the book's depth are all of the various programming examples. Although much of the book's content is rather technical, each chapter has sections that should be accessible to non-programmers. Several topics are excluded that are covered in other books such as the TCP/IP stack, since there is no "networking" chapter. This is because the Mac OS X TCP/IP stack is largely a derivative of the FreeBSD stack, which is already well documented. In general, information that is generic across Unix variants and can easily be found in other books is not included. The table of contents is as follows:
Chapter 1, "Origins of Mac OS X," describes the technical history of Mac OS X and the systems it derives from. An unabridged version of Chapter 1, which covers all of Apple's past and present operating systems, is available on this book's accompanying web site.

This book will be useful to anyone curious about the composition and working of Mac OS X. Application programmers will develop a better understanding of how their applications interact with the system. System programmers can use the book to construct a better picture of how the core system works. It truly is an elegant piece of work on modern operating system design, even if you are not specifically interested in Mac OS X. However, whoever reads this book should know how to program in C so that they can appreciate all of the code included with the book. I highly recommend it.
Good for very specific, low-level needs.......2006-12-20
I bought this book because I'm an experienced programmer, but new to OS X development, and have seen it recommended as _the_ definitive OS X technical reference. And while I would say, yes, it is the definitive technical reference, that needs some qualification. If you need very low-level information about the boot process, the executable loading process, kernel extensions, how things work inside the kernel at a point below most user APIs--and other such topics--then this is the book for you. That level is below where you'll be operating if you're using Cocoa or even POSIX functions. So I'd call this book a must-have if you're working on the kernel itself, writing device drivers, trying to port OS X to new hardware, or like the kind of gritty detail in operating system textbooks. If you're wanting a book about actually programming for OS X, even at the UNIX level, then this isn't it.
Excellent all around.......2006-09-03
This is the first Mac programming book that has been released since OS X's debut that is actually worth buying. It is such an amazingly detailed tour of everything that makes the OS tick that I am honestly amazed by the thought of one person writing the entire thing. It's not going to put on a stupid looking cowboy hat and teach you Objective-C or hold your hand through building your first Cocoa project, but it will show you how to actually do something interesting once you progress beyond re-inventing the text editor and to-do list.
If I have anything negative to say about this book it's just that it's incredibly sad that a guy from Google wrote it before anybody at Apple did. It's like nobody in the company even remembers how nice the Inside Macintosh series was anymore.
An awesome comprehensive programmer's pal.......2006-08-27
This is a great book. It covers device access, iokit, debuggers, compile flags, processor info, efi/bootx and nvram settings, universal/fat binaries, heritage of Darwin and the mach role, memory management and threading, and more. It's thicker then the bible, but none of it is fluff. Well written easy to follow, and has tons of good examples.
A remarkable achievement.......2006-08-08
Amit Singh's Mac OS X Internals book is, for all intents and purposes, a flawless treatment of the subject matter. The breadth of coverage crosses all major kernel subsystems (processes/threads, virtual memory, etc), extentions, a history of Mac OS X, programming/developement environments, hardware architecture (including PPC details) and system firmware. I can't think of anything that Mr. Singh did not cover.
And the depth! Fantastic! A brilliant top-down approach to the individual subjects, getting into all the detail one could want, all the while maintaining a wonderfully readable style. It is not trivial to make such subject matter a pleasure to read, but Mr. Singh has stepped to the task. I feel like I learned something on almost every page!
There are general computer science gems sprinkled throughout the text (the "systems" approach), so for those relatively new to operating systems, microprocessor design features (e.g. caches and cache types), programming constructs (stack management, recursion, etc), virtual memory, etc, you will extend your knowledge in areas beyond that of Mac OS X implementation details. You'll get the bigger picture.
One of my overall favorite operating systems books of all time. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Operating Systems and/or Mac OS X.

Fine for the novice.......2007-09-16
Having newly come from Microsoft Publisher, In Design was a challenge. I used the Adobe manual in parallel with this one, got more out of the combination than the sum of each one by itself. Managed to produce a design in three weeks from start to finish. Friends who know the business find that a remarkably short time.
A Great Reference Desitined to Become Dog Earred.......2007-06-18
This book has helped me to execute a design item many times. It's not perfect but I've already begun to wear out the thing while my reference texts published by Adobe remain in pristine condition.
I would buy this product again.

REALLY HELPFUL!.......2006-09-29
I was used to an InDesign software from far ago, the dinosaur era. When got the newest version, was at a complete lost. This book explains in easy words EVERYTHING! Adobe's software is great, but their manuals can be used and understood by those with an IQ of 300 up. Am grateful for this book and fully recommend it.
quite boring.......2006-09-13
Technically, this will teach you how to use indesign. But it's so boring and repetitive. It's like memorizing a list.
